...and the snowflakes danced

As it is getting closer and closer to the holiday known as Christmas, I've been re-living my ballet days by listening to Tchaikovski's compositions from The Nutcracker. When I was younger and did ballet, I always wished that one day I'd be able to play Clara with the best prima ballerinas. 


I still love watching ballet, the way ballerina's look effortlessly graceful as they dance along the stage, giving the audience a story to watch through their movements. I always get a little excited when I see a ballerina go en pointe, it's like a magical moment in itself.
